Bad Science
Ben Goldacre's Bad Science column for the Guardian is one of the most refreshing journalistic undertakings I've seen in a while. Perhaps it's a bit of evil fun to watch him make fun of humanities graduate "science reporters", but he doesn't seem to do so without good reason.
I have similar complaints about technology writers -- many (but not all) don't really seem to understand their topic. When I happen to be very familiar with a given topic, I often find an article lacking or even incorrect. Perhaps this is why I find myself spending more time reading blogs than "official" news sources...
